91Pioneer Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 At the very least clean your C101 if you have no soldering skills. I cleaned mine last weekend and it eliminated my random high idle on startup problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Jeep.Manche401 Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 Yeah I know the c101 is an issue. I spent hours cleaning mine and I could probably do it again. I don't under stand where that tar comes from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

91Pioneer Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 From the pictures you posted last night, it looks like you have one vacuum line not yet connected at the rear of the air box. Yeah the tar is gross, it must have been some kind of grease from the factory that turned to sludge. p.s. the high idle could be another vacuum leak.

Co.Jeep.Manche401 Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 Yeah I figured out the line to attach to the air box. Tomorrow I'm going to use a test light on the grounds and potentially go get a vacuum gauge. I'm wondering if it's compression. Might have to do a compression test.

Co.Jeep.Manche401 Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 So new developments here. It ran last night, and stalled out. Wouldn't start this afternoon, but I kept doing some stuff (rechecked the vacuum diagram once again, added a new chassis ground to the heat shield, installed a rear bumper finally, tried cleaning the tail light ground but the screw is stripped, and worked on degunking the C101 for the third time.) I bought the 4 gauge cable from NAPA to ground the negative battery ground to the radiator bolt but I realized my negative battery cable is grounded to my dipstick ground, does anyone have a photo of where it is supposed to be grounded because I can find it forward of the dip stick ground. Anyways I did all of this and then added some fuel because I know the fuel gauge is not working. After that she fired right up and ran with out stalling. It makes a decent clinking noise towards the fan, I hope it's the fan itself and not a cylinder. I shut her down, then she wouldn't restart! What's going on! Any thoughts?

cruiser54 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 It's okay to have a ground cable from the dipstick tube stud to the chassis. Actually preferable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Jeep.Manche401 Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 Bolt it right to the radiator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
